WEST HAM UNITED
West Ham are enjoying a relatively fruitful season. They are in the hunt for European places in the Premier League and are in the semifinal of the Europa League. They hosted Frankfurt in the first leg on Thursday but were disappointed after a slow start that saw them conceding in the opening minute of the game. Despite fighting back to level by halftime, it was the visiting side that prevailed on the night 2-1 to hold the slight edge going into the 2nd leg next week.
This run deep into the Europa League has had a bit of a knock on their domestic assignments as they now lost two and drawn one of their last three EPL games, with the 1-0 loss to Chelsea last weekend leaving them in 7th place, three points behind Manchester United.
Despite that, they have been quite solid in their backyard. They are unbeaten in their last 6 league games, picking up 14 from 18 points on offer in that run. They will be looking to keep that streak alive here.
ARSENAL
With everyone looking to write their epitaph for this season, Arsenal turned lemon to lemonade in the last 10 days with a string of impressive performances in the league to thrust themselves back into the Champions League equation and with their fate now very much in their hands. After grabbing all three points at Stamford Bridge in a thrilling goal-fest, they drove the final nail in Man United’s top-four hopes with a 3-1 win last weekend.
They rode their luck in these two matches but still took care of business as they needed to. The results elevated them to 4th on the log, two points clear of 5th place Tottenham who could retake that coveted 4th slot with victory over Leicester in an earlier kickoff the same Sunday.
The Gunners will be oozing confidence here given their recent form on their travels. They have won six of their last eight away games in the league and another victory here will see them consolidate their quest to return to Champions League football next season.

WEST HAM VS ARSENAL PREDICTIONS
Arsenal pulled out a 3-3 draw here last season, coming back from 3-0 down. West Ham have scored in all their matches here this season and Arsenal’s suspect defence gives us no reason to believe that run can end here. With the Gunners finding their scoring boots in recent weeks, we could be in for a treat here yet again when it comes to goals. Three of their last 5 meetings at this venue have seen at least 3 goals scored. A repeat of the same is priced @ 1.92 at Paripesa and we are backing this as our initial betting tip today.
With Arsenal well-rested coming into this game, and West Ham just coming off their midweek fixture, we expect the Gunners to dominate the match for the most part while West Ham will be on the back foot and playing the counter. As such, we feel Arsenal will most likely edge the corners battle. This option is priced @ 1.60 on the 1xBet app and we are rolling with it for our final pick here.
